Signs of stress and burnout include:
Are you feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and emotionally drained by the demands of life?
Stress is a natural response to challenging situations or demands, but when it becomes chronic or overwhelming, it can lead to burnout.
Burnout is a state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by prolonged stress, often resulting from work-related pressures or personal responsibilities.
While the causes for each individual are different, here are some common contributors:
Why do stress & burnout occur?
High workplace and personal demands
Feeling underappreciated or undervalued
Feeling a lack of autonomy over your work
setting unrealistically high standards
Difficulty balancing responsibilities with leisure
While stressors and responsibilities are part of life’s givens, wellness isn’t the absence of stressors, but your ability to cope with them when they arise. With the proper tools, you can learn to better manage your stress, set healthier boundaries, and prevent burnout before it begins.

Stress and burnout are intricately linked with physiological symptoms. Your body secretes stress hormones that can contribute to an uptick in migraines, increased body tension, lethargy, or increased restlessness. Thus, we find it particularly important to consider your full context when working with stress and burnout.
Your psychotherapist may use a range of modalities, depending on your needs and experiences. Each treatment plan is tailored to you, with your goals and preferences at the forefront.
